Keytool Errors with JVM v1.3 and Above

Q.

I am running NetWare 6 Support Pack 1 and I am installing NPS (spell out) v1.5. Page 35 of the user's manual describes how to set up SSL over LDAP. After exporting the TrustedRootCert.der using Keytool to import the certificate, I get the following Keytool error:

java.security.nosuchalgorithmexception: SHA1WITHRSA
Signature not available

Any help?

Dear Keyed-out: You must be using Keytool from JVM v1.3 and above. You could try using a Windows client to point to CA certificates on your NetWare server. This will probably solve your problem.
